Graham Greene and the Politics of Popular Fiction and Film

Autor B. Thomson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 aug 2009
One of the most popular, respected and controversial writers of the twentieth century, Greene's work has still attracted relatively little scholarly comment. Thomson charts the intricate dance between his novels and screenplays, his many audiences, and an intellectual establishment reluctant to identify the work of a popular writer as 'literature'.
